Ronen Ginzburg, Prometey: 'A great win for us, for Ukraine'
Article
3 Mins read
Ronen Ginzburg, Prometey Slobozhanske head coach
"If I have the answer, I will tell you, but I don't have the answer [about almost seeing a 16-point lead slip away]. This is basketball! It's ups and downs, we play against really good teams, coachable teams. In the end, I'm happy that we made this important basket, we improved our defense a little bit. A great win for us, a great win for the club, for Ukraine. It's an amazing feeling.
"We understand that someone needed to step up – we missed too many players. About [Illia] Sydorov, players on the team all know how much I love him. This season he struggled a little bit, he was injured and that, but he's a winner and because of this he's in the team.
(On Prometey's playoff chances): "Let's go one by one and let's see.
"Great feeling. We played against a team that had a short roster – also us – but they showed all season that they are a really tough team. For us, it was important because we missed players and we showed that other players can step in and do the job. Great feeling, because there was a lot of pressure on us; you work the whole year and you lose the first game, it's [not good]. We had ups and downs during the game, but we won."
"We are now a little bit shaky in this area [point guards], but now [Caleb] Agada will come back I hope.
(On Sydorov's performance): "For sure [I expected this type of performance], because Sydorov is a winner. I keep him in the team first of all because of this. In the decisive time he will be there, and he was there today."
Benka Barloschky, Veolia Towers Hamburg head coach
"I'm very proud of my team. We fought, we left everything we had on the court, but I want everybody to remember: we have a war in Europe. We are playing against a Ukrainian team, we cannot play in Ukraine because there's a war. There's [things that are] far more important than sports. As an organization, our prayers and our thoughts go out to all the people who are affected by this war in Europe. This is way bigger than sports tonight.
"It's a big journey for us in every game we play. We played competitively. It's a learning curve for us – we want to compete against the best teams in Europe, and we did. We learned a lot and I'm very happy with our campaign this year in the EuroCup.
"In the end, in these close games, it's about making or missing shots. Prometey made the big ones – [Gian] Clavell made a big shot to seal the game more or less. We had the shots, we didn't make them tonight, but there's nothing that I can ask for that my team didn't do tonight. I'm proud of them. I told them that they can be proud of themselves, because they left everything they had [out on the floor], we were competitive and that's all we can ask for."
Ondrej Balvin, Prometey Slobozhanske center
"Hell of a fight from both sides. I think everybody knows what this is about; it's just one game, anything can happen. I think Hamburg had moments in the second quarter and the beginning of the fourth when they were starting to hit some tough shots, and it complicated the game for us. We just had to start focusing again 100%, and if you don't give it [your all for] every minute, anything can happen.
(On Illia Sydorov's performance): "I think he did a hell of a job. He had some tough moments during the season with his injuries, so he lost some of his rhythm. I think we've got the luxury that we've got amazing coming from the bench, or they didn’t have that many minutes at the beginning of the season, but right now they're showing what they can do. They're playing with their hearts and doing an amazing job."
